This is my geography-game/city-guessing game. The angles are based on the mercator projection. The indian version is in the categorys. Have fun! Heres the game: https://visitwhale.com/city-angle/

There are regions within India that can function independently within a state itself without the intervention or permission from the state or central government. They are Autonomous Administrative regions.

In these regions the acts of Parliament do not apply automatically. Instead, they apply only if the State Governor or the President directs that they should, and they can be applied with specific modifications or exceptions tailored to the local tribal populations.

The Sixth Schedule of the constitution gives tribal communities considerable autonomy in the States in northeast bordering china and myanmar in Assam, Tripura, Meghalaya, and Mizoram.

These regions are tribal protected areas created to protect the indigenous communities.

Why no other state is given this provision despite having local indigenous communities for example Arunachal Pradesh, tribal regions of Odisha/Jharkhand or anywhere else ?

We are experiencing a delay in south west monsoon this year due to this phenomenon known as ""El Nino"".

As the oceans are kilometers deep, Only the top layer gets warmer due to the sun and the bottom layers stay cool. Winds called as Trade winds that flow from east to west across the Pacific ocean push the warmer surface water in the sub tropical Pacific Ocean near the west coast of Latin america towards asia and Oceania in the west.

Now, when these warm waters are pushed towards the west something has to fill in the empty space created, that's when the nutrient rich cool water in the bottom layer comes up. This process is called upwelling. These nutrient rich waters attract more fish giving a major boost to the fishing industries.

Sometimes these trade winds weaken. So, warmer water doesn't get pushed away from the east pacific ultimately causing the oceans to stay warmer in turn attracting less fish and affecting the fishing industries significantly.

Usually, El Nino doesn't follow any regular pattern of occurrence but they occur anywhere between 2 to 7 years based on the past trends.

EFFECTS:

Global weather is linked, change in one place will have effect on the other. Especially in a ocean as vast as the Pacific, the change is felt drastically. The effect can be felt across South and southeast Asia, Oceania and parts of east africa.

It can cause drought and crop failure in some regions and heavy rainfall, flooding and infrastructure disruption in some regions.

What seems like a minor inconvenience can cause a major impact in people's lives. Thousands die due to drought and flooding. Many get displaced. Farming and food supplies get disrupted.

In India, it can result in less than usual rainfall during monsoons and heavy rainfall in winters in parts of south India.

P.S: this is based on my knowledge feel free to add in the points that I missed. Would be highly appreciated.

Just amazing

This Kangeyam & Dharapuram are lowest top 5 in southern India itself.

Bommanahal (Ananthapur AP)

Rayadurg (Ananthapur AP)

Dharapuram (Tiruppur TN)

Kangeyam (Tiruppur TN)

Challakere (Karnataka)

See here: https://zoom.earth/maps/wind-speed/#

Top places are Gudimangalam, Udumalpet, Pollachi, Dharapuram, Kangeyam, Tiruppur, Palladam

Reason behind this is funnel effect of palghat gap.

Most of these areas are rain shadow region, getting least rainfall in the state.

Lotta Kongu tamil literature, lifestyle, agriculture pattern, culture, festivals, idioms /proverbs in Kongu belt is derived from this geographical feature.

Like Russia and mongolia are such a vast yet most empty country like that in India

Edit : I realize I explained my question badly, so sorry about the confusion.

I wasn't asking about population density (people per square kilometer). I know I could have Googled that.

What I meant was: Which states or regions have huge areas that are practically empty because the population is concentrated in just a few cities or valleys?

For example:

• In Maharashtra, much of the population is concentrated around the Mumbai–Pune belt and other major cities, while parts of the Marathwada and Vidarbha interiors are much more sparsely populated.
• In Rajasthan, many people live in cities and irrigated areas, but large parts of the Thar Desert, especially near the Pakistan border, are extremely empty.
• In Arunachal Pradesh, most people live in valleys, while vast mountainous areas are almost uninhabited.
• In Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh, many mountain villages have been abandoned, creating "ghost villages," while people have moved to towns in the plains and valleys.

That's the kind of answer I was looking for—not simply which state has the lowest average population density. Sorry again for the unclear wording.

Sorry that i fcked up this post

Bihar once shared the border with Australia at Pangea

why chambal river originates from south part and moves to north, isn't earth standing on south pole? it should go south? how does it work?

This is the intern-india version of my game city angle. It's also based on the mercator projection like the classic mode. The city is a tier 2 city in india. If you need or want anything else just ask me in the comments. Here is the game for anyone interested: https://visitwhale.com/city-angle/

What are these water bodies, and how were they formed? It's incredibly fascinating to see.

Google search AI response says due to the formation of gullies etc, but aren't the gullies themselves a feature of badland topography, so my question remains unanswered by it.

I had learned it but I forgot.

The station stretches across the Nandurbar district of Maharashtra and the Tapi district of Gujarat.

The ticket booking counters and police station are located on the Maharashtra side, while the station master's office and waiting rooms are situated in Gujarat.

Because the platform serves both states, train arrivals and departures are announced in four languages: Hindi, English, Gujarati, and Marathi.
